Shipping Container Costs to Thailand

If you’re planning to ship your belongings out with you to Thailand there’s no need to find the whole process overwhelming. Your belongings will head to Bangkok port, the largest and most common port in Thailand, where they can be met by you.

Whether you’re heading to Bangkok or the wider breadth of the country, MoveHub can help you find the right shipping company to meet your requirements and make shipping to Thailand simple and straightforward.

Different shipping options to Thailand

Given the distance from most countries your main options for shipping belongings to Thailand come in the form of air or sea freight.

While sea freight is the most cost effective, it can take around 4 weeks to reach Thailand, so you’d need to ship well in advance, to ensure it arrives in Thailand at roughly the time as you do.

Having said that, if you need to get things over fast, your best bet is air shipment that takes a matter of days, but obviously this comes with a higher price tag.

Whichever method you choose, you can take advantage of door-to-door delivery that comes as standard with international shipping, thus wherever you’re headed your goods will be delivered direct to your new home.
